Re: SotD: Saturday 29th December 2012

Morning All,

Your poor paw, Wolfie. Hope you get a chance to rest up a little. Larimar - I'm glad it isn't only my watch that is stuck
Off to visit friends in the country later today (assuming, that is, the roads are navigable: wettest year on record and it is chucking it down). Fumerie Turque for now.

Re: SotD: Saturday 29th December 2012

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Wolfie I'm sorry about the PF, it's painful indeed. I hope you'll be able to rest it and feel better soon.

SOTD is MOR Marshmallow. Don't let the name mislead you; this is no cloying confection. Instead it is a refined, subtle take on Turkish Delight, more floral than gourmand. It is a roll-on oil so wears close and softly to skin. Lovely.

Owie, Wolfie. Been there with the PF. Once had a steroid shot right into the heel. That hurt, but quickly and temporarily fixed things. Orthotics (which I modified with my X-Acto knife to improve) were great, but in recent years I have come to be able to dance all day thanks to high-arch Birkenstocks and, outdoors, Crocs. I'm twice as heavy as most of you, so, like most burdens, one is forced to learn solutions.

No scent yet. The grade school reunion last night didn't produce many people I knew, but this was really just a dress rehearsal for the big reunion I plan for 2014.
